hmm how do you throw/catch the ball? When I spawn next to the ball I am not sure what to do. kinda crazy you made something in only 5 hours though.

Cool idea but the controls a bit buggy. For 5 hours this is nice.

leuhfahn 2013-12-17 02:55

click to throw/catch the ball.

Pretty cool! For some reason I could only move left and couldn't pick up or throw the ball so I spent quiet some time trying to roll it into the goal with no sense of direction :P

The movement is really odd can't control it very well and the game is pretty based on it. Nice work though.

Haha, cool! I cannot believe i felt sooo proud to get the ball in the goal. Of course there are a lot of improvements to be made, sound, music, azerty/qwerty switch that also works on a mac, textures on ramps and a win screen. Still, playing this makes me feel like a tiny kid running around with a giant ball. nice! (daring use of comic sans!)

cant controll the ball....is it a bug?

I wasn't able to switch the controls. The mouse movement was too sensitive and the instructions text should be completely visible to the player as soon as they enter.

Strange controls... Interesting idea though. COuldnt figure out how to win.

Ahah I didn't get all the fun of it, I guess I'm not a masochist :)

I beat the first level and then decided that was enough. This is really frustrating.

lordhellmax 2013-12-22 21:12

I didn't find much fun to it...

Cool game! ^^

Controls is little strange... QZSD? Good for arrows :>
I have problems with "catch" ball... Even when I stop ball, I "lose" :c
Made this game in 5 hours? Crazy ;D
But... Interesting idea ;)

Simple game, but well done. I included it in part 20 of my Ludum Dare 28 compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) youtu.be/O9M3TIYW4UU

Overall this game needs a bit more work in order to be fun to play. I see what you were getting at, and with some refinement this could turn into a decent concept, but without the polish it makes the game frustrating to play.

Still though, a decent idea! :D

The only thing that your game does is trolling me... in a good way.

I couldn't get a hang of the controls? it felt like I was controlling the camera rather than the ball, which might've been the case.
